quick question about bannings

First rapper to consistantly adlib?

was it fp or ban or permaban for tanuki at time

afaik, we just banned him for reaching his 51. He was unbanned after his 30 days and started posting again a little bit later.

well it's your call but [all the things I just said]

Like I'm willing to bet actual money that actually permabanned posters are more welcome here

POLL

we should totally start doing hostage swaps I'll nominate the first three each side no prob

For real, I'm still not clear on the circumstances of some big bans but I know they're controversial whereas this is just some cunt that everybody hates, do the right thing you stupid idiots

que was an awesome poster back when he was Mr. que

Auk = Tanook?

yup

How long will the second ban be?

40 days & 40 nights in the nearest wilderness

does he get a companion racoon?

no, he will only get an accomplice auk.

can a mod add the word "Raccoon" before every username except arctic noon auk?

Racoon lag∞n

no cos then Raccoon wins

heyy

damn i really went hard in this thread

racoon tanuki is like lariqua minus everything that was entertaining about him, gotta be one of the worst posters in ilx history

Yeah which is why we were unanimous in our rejection even before the bigotry we all deemed unacceptable, mod equivocation here is typically embarrassing impressively blithe, kiu champs

Getting yelled at for banning anyone ever vs. getting yelled at for not banning people hard enough. It's like, hey what can you do, you know?

quit being a mod! i recommend it!

nobody said it was easy

having said that

lol. as I was reading forks' post, I figured it was wins until I saw the dn.

I would never!

I also promise not to yell at you for banning the guy nobody wants here

^ dedicated to hardworking mods everywhere

has he brought anything off site yet if not he's not even bottom three

let him stay, things were getting fairly staid

thx for starting this thread, babyboy, but i'm not waiting two innings for you to get to Citi Field this year.

btw amateurist has now progressed to claiming i write "obama = hitler" posts, so he should get to civility about 5 years after i am dead.

one thing i really appreciate about you is that you're willing to fight w/ anyone

If morbs had been around to post about adolt shitler and the third retch just think how differently things might have turned out

anyone who needs to be pooped on

i very seldom fight with anyone who's smart enough to stay off the fucking politics threads

now Morbs is in this thread title makes me think of Kieslowski's Dekalog more than ever

I tht tanuki was Corey/clouds. Clearly this is some other person. Ive never heard of em but ILM is a whole othe universe to me.

you whaaat

oh wait yeah I see the confusion haha

as in, i think he had the name tanuki for a bit

Thursday, August 20, 2020 11:53 AM Site Boring, Maryland has been banned permanently. that's a big no to suicide "jokes"

uh, can Boring be given the calzino treatment and this be tempered into a 3 day temp ban -- if that is actually the mods intent, then cool. ... Also see original post in this thread for context ... it was an obvious "gallows humor" joke and wasn't even suggesting the poster in question kill himself

I didn't think it was that obvious, and was a beyond stupid "joke." board lawyering is unlikely to accomplish anything here besides waste people's time. I don't think the mod in question needs to justify the decision further at all.

i think things like this should be taken in the context of the poster's history here, as happened with calzino. also, i hate to bring this up, but one of the things people on the left are _really_ concerned about is apparent bias. people might get the idea that a centrist saying the same thing that boring did would be met with a more lenient response. since this isn't a hypothesis anybody particularly want to see tested, it's a hard belief to argue against, and we're all particularly sensitive to it in light of facebook equating antifa with qanon.

Uh ... as opposed to the board lawyering done on calzino's behalf that actually did accomplish something? ... I understand the instinct to ban and the immediate action, but letting this stand just ... I'm sorry, but I think ILX is smarter and more thoughtful than that. ... At least I want to.

It would be different if that post was made on a thread about suicide or depression, or addressed to a poster who has openly posted about struggles with ideation and mental illness ... similar to the calzino stabbing thing -- it's bad precedent, though the initial mod impulse is understandable. I'm just requesting that this be a temp-ban or (ideally imo) a yellow card. Like, I'm not going "fuck mods" about this ...

Clearly the trick is to bring it up in the ADMIN LOG 2 thread.

might work better if the person bringing it up isn't the person that started the ADMIN LOG 2 thread

There's an admin log?

Anyway sarahell I agree with you, after what happened with calzino I think it would be beneficial to have some sort of post-mortem examination of the context of Boring's statement. Honestly I know very little about Boring or about their history with the board.

What was the joke? Who is Boring?
